Detective Copp

Comedy Feature (more than 60 pages)
Screenwriter

When the town’s mayor goes missing, overconfident Detective Copp takes the case to prove he can follow in his father’s legendary footsteps. With the help of his new partners —Jessica Benson (sharp, professional, endlessly patient) and Eddie Torial (ambitious, driven, unfortunately blind) — Copp stumbles through bizarre encounters: A suspicious restaurant called Stereotypes, an underground tortoise-racing den, a mysterious man who only communicates with note cards, and, worst of all, his rival Officer Mark Mywords (annoyingly handsome, dating Copp’s ex-girlfriend, and struggles with verbal dyslexia). As the chaos builds, Copp discovers that solving the mystery (and saving the mayor) requires more than his self-proclaimed skill — it takes teamwork. A slapstick comedy in the spirit of Airplane! and The Naked Gun, Detective Copp blends absurd gags with a heartfelt story about growth and collaboration.

riter Statement:

I have been developing Detective Copp over the past six years, a project born from my passion for storytelling and a love of comedy. Collaborating with my brother Brenan, a very talented storyteller, has allowed me to bring this vision to life. We are committed to excellence in filmmaking, dedicating the time and care needed to ensure every detail serves the story. While we enjoy creating humor, our true focus is crafting narratives with depth, meaningful character growth, and an engaging journey that leaves audiences entertained and moved. Detective Copp embodies this philosophy, blending absurd comedy with a heartfelt story of teamwork and personal growth.
